Review on ๐Ÿšด Stay Hydrated on Your Adventures with the CamelBak Women's Daystar 16 Hydration Pack, 85oz by Colin Arcos

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Useful and inexpensive

I bought this after looking at several hydration packs as I needed one for short hikes. I've used it a few times while hiking and even as carry on on the plane and I absolutely love it. It has enough space, maybe for a sweater or light jacket and a small breakfast bag, so it's not too big. I was able to fit my Macbook with its case along with a sweater and a few other items, but it was cramped. I liked the small pocket at the top of the backpack because it was easier to store important small items like a wallet or keys in it. The chest strap is adjustable which is very comfortable considering I'm 5ft 1in so other chest straps tend to fit me a little differently. Two mesh pockets on the sides are bonus for water bottles or other essentials. The color is pleasant because it's striking but not alarming. The hydration pack was easy to clean and use, although I had a little trouble figuring out how it sits in the pack. My friend had a Camelbak hydration pack that attached to her pack, but I have a handle that slides into a small slot. was comfortable and allowed my back to breathe while hiking, also came with shoulder straps. Whenever I put on a tank top, the mesh would rub against the straps on my shoulders. The backpack was perfect when I was wearing the t-shirts. I still think it was a great purchase and will buy another one if this one ever fails because it has so many features to justify the price.

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • So so
